BTGenBot: Behavior Tree Generation for Robotic Tasks with Lightweight LLMs

Riccardo Andrea Izzo, Gianluca Bardaro, Matteo Matteucci

This paper presents a novel approach to generating behavior trees for robots using lightweight large language models (LLMs) with a maximum of 7 billion parameters. The study demons…
